From the thread. 'Slow response times for large documents' https://github.com/graphql/graphql-js/issues/723#issuecomment-379090872 https://github.com/graphql/graphql-js/issues/723#issuecommen... It seems that the graphql library is performing a lot of validation, and that's slowing things down. I expect validation to be a pure-compute task, and this is Javascript, so I suspect this is really a "working with large amounts of data in Javascript is slow" issue - but that's just at a glance.
